Well worth it - great for many reasons!

Awesome product, very happy I invested as this has already helped immensely with nailing exposure and focus - and looks more professional and is great for playback too!

Buy this! You WILL NOT regret it!

Excellent, high quality and durable packaging (very Apple-esque). High quality results with great default video settings upon initial unpacking and use. Already considering buying another, identical item & package. The included articulating mount is also great! Very durable material and allows for amazing flexibility! Provides for creative monitor placement during production. And to get the mount for FREE is a no-brainer (I mean, check out the site and see how much it costs to buy separately). However, even then, I would still consider getting an additional mount. Highly recommend for mid-budget purchase and semi-pro to pro usage!

No cords?? Wow.

I'm sure this is a good monitor, but I have NEVER seen a product cost so much and then not come with the things you need to use it. You would think it would come with an HDMI to HDMI mini so you can actually use it, or at LEAST a micro usb to even turn it on! It is honestly a complete brain fry that they would ever think that is ok.

Great quality and super easy to see the screen even on a sunny day. Love being able to have a LUT applied while recording also.

Great picture with a little setup

Great picture, but requires online activation and firmware update before first use. Make sure you have it all set up before your first shoot!

Best Video Accesory Purchase

Love this monitor! It’s not only great for me to see the whole screen clearly but clients love seeing what they look like (especially after a LUT) is applied!

Very good monitor with small caveats.

It’s a very good monitor, but the interface sluggish and the HDMI port doesn’t have the best location, that aside it’s jammed with features and gets the job done. Overall I’m happy with the purchase and hope that an update speeds op the response time.

Great display!

Using as an onboard monitor to shoot live events and this thing is gorgeous and reliable. Battery life is around 4 hours with 2 x Sony mid-range L-Series batteries and the display is very bright and responsive. Love it!

Amazing monitor

So far this monitor is amazing and is very bright. I have it as a directors monitor in a cage and it’s impressive how much functionality it has.
